architectural services

architecture.collective is experienced in providing a diverse range of architectural services on projects ranging in scale, scope and complexity. Intrinsic to our service is: think green first.

Our practice encompasses a diverse range of work, including residential, interior design, industrial projects, retail and office fitouts, as well as eco-effective education, training and consulting.

Whilst we offer all the traditional services you would expect from a professional architectural practice, our point of difference is our consideration of eco-effectiveness and sustainability throughout the entire design and building process.

Put simply, rather than consider environmental, energy efficiency and sustainability issues as an afterthought, we adopt an integrated approach that prioritises these objectives as part of the initial schematic design.

We provide a ‘macro to micro’ approach to design; our services include urban design and masterplanning, site and micro-climate analysis, project and cost management, in addition to traditional architectural services.

When you engage Architecture Collective, you are working with a team who carefully consider all aspects of environmental impact and carbon footprint throughout the design and building process, from formulating the brief to managing construction waste.
